In reply to the discussion: July Recipe Challenge* - Summer Squash &/or Zucchini! [View all]locks
(2,012 posts)25. Laurian's Alaskafromscratch blueberry/zucchini muffins
This is a delicious recipe as is. If you like you can tweak muffin recipes depending on how "healthy" you want them to be and what you have on hand.
I really like zucchini but you can add or substitute for it: chopped yellow squash, carrots chopped fine (you might want to cook them a few minutes first), raw apples chopped fine, or half applesauce/half zucchini.
Dry ingredients: use half white flour and half all-bran cereal.
Most recipes sugar can be cut in half. To the topping I added brown sugar and pecans chopped fine.
I like the tiny muffin tins, best if they are non-stick. Spray with canola oil, fill to 3/4, add topping, bake at 350 20-22 mins. Makes about 60 tiny muffins or 18-20 large.
